Established in 1814, Miles is celebrated for crafting exceptional Madeira wines that capture the authentic heritage and rich character of the region. Aged for five years in traditional oak casks, this rich expression delivers an opulent, sweet profile defined by concentrated dried fruits, toffee notes, and remarkable island intensity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy You'll Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis wine stands out for its luscious, sweet mouthfeel and deep, satisfying complexity. It offers a rich and full-bodied palate balanced by the natural, uplifting freshness inherent to Madeira wines. Fined before release, it requires no decanting and enjoys an exceptionally long shelf life after opening, staying perfectly fresh for several months so you can enjoy a glass whenever the mood strikes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eVineyard \u0026amp; Production\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe grapes are hand-harvested from small, family-owned plots planted on steep volcanic terraces across the island. The juice undergoes controlled fermentation in stainless steel vats before being fortified with natural grape spirit to arrest fermentation, preserving its rich, natural sweetness. The wine then matures for five years in oak casks, developing its characteristic amber-brown depth and wood-aged nuances before being fined, filtered, and bottled ready for immediate enjoyment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePouring a deep, dark, golden-brown colour in the glass, it opens with a characteristic Madeira bouquet laden with notes of dried fruits, sultanas, and rich toffee. On the palate, it is delightfully sweet, velvety, and full-bodied, offering layers of caramel, dried figs, and warm baking spices. It finishes long and lingering, leaving a satisfying, warming wooden aftertaste.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePerfect Pairings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith its lush sweetness and generous weight, this 5-year-old rich Madeira serves as a superb accompaniment to a wide variety of desserts. It pairs magnificently with chocolate puddings, fruit cakes, sticky date tarts, and berry-based dishes. It is also an exceptional match for rich soft cheeses, such as Camembert, Brie, or ripe blue cheeses, as well as an indulgent digestif on its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGrape Varieties\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e100% Tinta Negra\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Drink Finder","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54866663080279,"sku":"123083","price":19.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0899\/6824\/7127\/files\/Miles_5_Year_Old_Rich_Madeira_75cl.jpg?v=1788444005","url":"https:\/\/www.drinkfinder.co.uk\/products\/miles-5-year-old-rich-madeira-75cl","provider":"Drink Finder","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
